Hostel «Imatra Spa Sport Camp»

The location is very nice with magnificent views to the lake. The building itself and its interiors are quite outdated, maybe from the 90s.

We stayed at the chalet which is a newer addition and was quite nice, but the beds and especially pillows were really poor in there as well. Even though it was supposed to have own air conditioning, the apartment stayed too hot during our stay although the weather was a regular Finnish summer and not too hot outside.

Nice activities offered, but e.g. the indoors kids play area was very smudged and unhygienic. The spa is nice with smaller kids, but quite small for bigger kids who want more action.

Imatran Kylpylä is in a perfect spot. The SPA area is fantastic and fun to visit. The recreation area, especially the bowling, is a great addition and we enjoyed it a lot.

But, the rooms are a big letdown. They seem untouched since the hotel was built, with old furniture and beds that have lost their shape after 20 years. Despite being called "superior," the rooms are far from it and feel very outdated.

Service is another major issue. The staff is often rude and disrespectful, which seems to be a common occurrence, not just a one-time thing. This really affects the overall experience negatively.

The food at the hotel is nothing special and overpriced. I would recommend eating elsewhere for a better and more affordable meal.

In short, while the location, SPA, and recreation areas are great, the poor room quality, bad service, and subpar dining options make it hard to fully enjoy your stay at Imatran Kylpylä.
